Hi all! Just got in to a new relationship in the past few weeks, but only found out last night that the guy is 18, and i'm turning 21 soon. He looks much older, and i thought that he was at least 20!! all my previous boyfriends have been at least 2 years older, and this just feels weird going out with someone younger!!
Is it just me being silly or what? Anyone else been in this situation?
I feel like a cradle snatcher or something!
{probably making a mountain out of a mole hill, but gimmie advice purlease?!?)

If you were 21 and he was 16 then it might be a little dodgy.
I think the formula is half your age plus 7..11+7 = 18. You are fine <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif">
BD, I thought that equation was applied the other way round?!?
CiaraD, don't worry, it seems almost all my past g/f's were older than me a least a little, my current Lady is 8 years older and we've been going strong for 16 months now. Age has less to do with compatability than personality, but then, I would say that wouldn't I???

Good luck.
I'm 15 and my boyf is 20. When we 1st got together there were people who didnt think is was 'right'! well I can tell you that we have been together for a year. Proving age differences do work if you love each other, or if its too early for love, if you have a spark.
Good luck sweetie
Are you young 15 or nearly 16?
I gotta say that 15 and 20 is getting close to the dodgy side of things. I think the fact that its rape if you two sleep together is a bit of a bad thing.
I got the cradle snatcher jokes too <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/biggrin.gif">
LOVE IS EVERYTHING
How would you feel about a 10 year old girl with a 15 year old boy? How about a 40 year old man with a 12 girl. Age gaps dont matter?
Theres a line folks...

...and some straight-talking advice too.
There are exceptions everywhere but 15-20 is getting toward the creepy line.
I dont mean to be mean to anyone so please forgive me if youve taken offence.
